They\u2019re all part of Lowry Burgess\u2019s MoonArk, a four-chambered mass of conceptual art he designed with dozens of other contributors. Soon it will go hurtling into the dark abyss on a privately funded space flight. \u201cA poem is like a bell,\u201d he said: \u201cevery word in a poem rings and makes all the rest of the other words ring. So in this, everything that\u2019s there is making something else ring. So the totality is meant to hum together \u2026 We think it should be different than sticking a flag in the soil and claiming territory \u2026 maybe we\u2019re leaving breadcrumbs for someone else to find their way back here. It\u2019s an attempt to communicate forward in time\u2014it\u2019s an attempt to communicate outward.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Plenty of books exist. But just as many, if not more, have never existed. And it\u2019s these that Samantha Hunt has on her mind: \u201cI have spent many pleasant nights imagining ghost books, those phantom texts of possibility and wonder. Their unprintable Dewey Decimal classifications divide them into (at the very least) <a href=\"http:\/\/lithub.com\/a-brief-history-of-books-that-do-not-exist\/\" target=\"_blank\">three basic categories: books that can only be read once, books that cannot be read in one lifetime, and the largest, aforementioned group, books that don\u2019t exist<\/a> \u2026 Among the books that cannot be read in one lifetime there is Raymond Queneau\u2019s <em>Cent mille milliard de po<i>\u00e8<\/i>mes \u2026 <\/em>It is the poetic response to the mathematical function 10<sup>14<\/sup> \u2026 It would take more than a million centuries to finish reading this thin, thin book of poems.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Remember all the dumb shit you wrote about T. S. Eliot in college? Imagine if it were published decades later, when you were President of the United States of America. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nybooks.com\/daily\/2016\/01\/04\/obama-as-literary-critic\/\" target=\"_blank\">A letter from the twenty-two-year-old Barack Obama to his then-girlfriend sheds light not just on his exegesis of \u201cThe Waste Land\u201d but on his worrisome tendency toward fatalism<\/a>: \u201cEliot contains the same ecstatic vision which runs from M\u00fcnzer to Yeats,\u201d Obama wrote. \u201cHowever, he retains a grounding in the social reality\/order of his time \u2026 Facing what he perceives as a choice between ecstatic chaos and lifeless mechanistic order, he accedes to maintaining a separation of asexual purity and brutal sexual reality. And he wears a stoical face before this.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Today in toothpicks: they\u2019re still out there in abundance, sometimes soaked in tea-tree oil, and you chew on them at your own peril, as Ryan Bradley learned: \u201cThere is but a small window in which it is okay to have a pick in your mouth, and that is for approximately ten minutes post-meal, when it\u2019s necessary to needle stuff out of your teeth. Unless you are Steve McQueen\u2014not the director, but the actor, who is dead\u2014if you walk around with a toothpick in your mouth trying to look cool, you look, instead, like a prick \u2026 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theawl.com\/2016\/01\/i-hope-you-floss\" target=\"_blank\">I put a pick in my mouth, allowing it to soften, then bit down enough to release a burst of tea-tree oil, and thought of the bacterial apocalypse I had unleashed<\/a>. It was satisfying. I lingered at a stoplight, chewing slowly, murdering millions of mouth bacteria while the light went green and the driver behind me began leaning on the wheel and only then, with the drone of the long honk behind me, did I begin to speed up.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>In 1942, Shostakovich completed his seventh symphony, which made its debut in Leningrad even though the city was under siege by the Germans and many of its citizens were starving. The moment is the subject of a new documentary, <em>Leningrad and the Orchestra That Defied Hitler<\/em>: \u201cOne of the interviewees recalls her eighteenth birthday in January 1942, when she put her grandfather\u2019s body on a sledge and took it away. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lrb.co.uk\/blog\/2016\/01\/02\/anna-aslanyan\/fireman-shostakovich\/\" target=\"_blank\">She remembers seeing a Christmas tree with what looked like parcels under it and then realizing they were dead children<\/a>. Her voice sounds incredibly young when she talks about the performance in the Philharmonic Hall, which looked just the same as ever, and the sense of elation everyone felt as they listened to Shostakovich\u2019s music.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The following are things we\u2019re sending to the moon: text messages between a husband and wife, thirty-three artists\u2019 blood, microscopic sculptures, river water, DNA from a genetically modified goat.
